Lyrics
Down the road a ways I've heard said a new day's coming on Where the womenfolk are friendly and the law leaves you alone Well, I'll believe it when I see it, and I haven't seen it yet Don't mind me, just keep on talkin'--I'm just looking for my hat There ain't no god in mexico, ain't no way to understand How that border-crossing feeling makes a fool out of a man If I'd never felt the sunshine, hell I would not curse the rain If my feet could fit a railroad track, I guess I'd-a been a train
Me and louise higginbotham used to chase across the yard Back in 1947, that's when more than times were hard Well pity me, I didn't find the line in time like a fool In front of god and everybody I politely blew my cool Ain't no god in mexico ain't no comfort in the can When you're down in matamoros gettin' busted by the man If I'd never felt the sunshine, hell I would not curse the rain If I hadn't been railroaded, well I guess I'd been a train
